new hud suggestion in game - Denied


Darkrat

Recommended Posts

What are you suggesting? -  a compass hud

How would this change better the server? -  It will help people to coordinate the team on ennemy or scps or hostile locations.

Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain. -  there is coding to do if you want to change the colour or any other thing.

Who would this change mostly benefit? -  The combatant jobs.

While it’s cool, heres why it hasn’t been added yet. I’ve come across this issue several times when trying to implement new SWEPs, the issue is, with how these tracking programs are made, it has to CONSTANTLY track for players around you 24/7. With SCP-RPs current playerbase, this would slow down processing by a MILE. The server would consistently lag because its always watching each and every players location. This is why we don’t use the Spectate command if theres 100+ players. If 128 players are basically all doing the spectate command constantly. I would be amazed if the server stayed online for 15 seconds

Its cool, but it could cause major lag and is not needed very much.

Would also make 106’s PD useless as people would find the direction with the compass.

-While I've seen other servers use this addon, and while it's cool we just wouldn't use it, our server isn't RP oriented enough for it to be worth having, most servers I've seen use this lean more towards serious roleplay.

-We have a lot of addons on our server so when adding an addon there is a change that it'll collide with another addon, in this case sense the HUD is in the center of the screen it would collide with the XP bar, 106 maze, and etc.

+mCompass simply wouldn't cause much lag, it just gets the world position your looking at and labels it at the top, wouldn't require anything heavy to run on the server as most of the lua would be running on the client.

-can be useful but it's extremely situational.

106's PD would be too easy to escape, and i cant think of situations people would actually use this.

Denied. The SCP-RP SMT has decided against adding this suggestion for performance reasons, the benefit to the server, or another unstated reason.
